Final repository

History[]

It was constructed byBragbor the Boastful at the behest ofProfessorIsidora Morganach to contain theextracted pain from Hogwarts students. By the time of Isidora'sdeath, it had become a vast store ofancient magic that if ever released, could threaten thewizarding world as a whole. To safeguard it against possibly corrupt influences, theKeepers kept it a secret from the rest of Hogwarts, burying it deep underneath theMap Chamber, where they would permit it to be discovered by anunidentified Hogwarts student centuries later.^[1][2] There wasanother repository beneathRookwood Castle, but it was significantly smaller than the one in Keepers' Caverns.^[4]

The existence of the Repository became known toRanrok, a goblin rebel and descendant of Bragbor, who worked with the criminal kingpinVictor Rookwood, after learning about its exact location inBragbor's last journal.^[5] However, he had been aware of its existence long before, as he had depleted theRookwood Castle repository and was hungry for more ancient magic.^[4]

Ranrok had amassed an army ofLoyalists, and constructed largedrills, with the hope of penetrating the rock foundation of Hogwarts and stealing the Repository's power for himself.^[5] Concurrently, the student was determined to prove themselves to the Keepers and show that they were worthy enough to defend it.^[1]

The Repository was ultimately destroyed in abattle conducted by Ranrok and his Loyalists in the1890–1891 school year. Ranrok consumed the magic within and transformed into adragon. He was eventually defeated by the student, who possibly reconstructed the Repository, or possibly ingested its power themselves.^[1]
